No, because the first line says that the driver is known *not* to compile on 
platforms other than ARM and SUPERH. Adding || COMPILE_TEST there would break 
compilation with allyesconfig and randconfig on those other platforms.

Stated differently, the first line restricts the driver from being compiled on 
architectures where it doesn't compile, regardless of COMPILE_TEST, and the 
second line restricts it to platform where hardware is known to exists, with 
COMPILE_TEST to optionally extend build coverage.
